HC Deb 24 June 1864 vol 176 c257
MR. DODSON

said, he would beg to ask, Whether, under the Highways District Act of 1862, the towns not subject to the jurisdiction of the Board, but adjoining or surrounded by highway districts, are legal places for the meeting of the Board?

SIR GEORGE GREY

Under the Highway Act of 1862 some doubts existed on this point, but by an Amendment to the Local Government Act made last Session towns adjoining or surrounded by highway districts were constituted legal places for the meeting of the Highway District Boards.
